Lian li rings in the new year with champange lancool one

If yoiu haven’t heard, LIAN LI is back and popping all of the bottles!

Well, that may be an overstatement, the OEM is helping a select number of customers ring in the new year with a limited edition champagne colored LANCOOL ONE.

So a while back LIAN LI announced that it was launching a white edition of the LANCOOL ONE. During that announcement, the company also stated that there will be five champagne editions will be made as well. Given what we’re talking about today, I would wager a bet that more than five people wanted a LANCOOL ONE colored in that tasty adult New Year’s beverage.

Indeed, LIAN LI will release 1000 limited edition champagne LANCOOL ONEs. By my count, that’s just a few more than five. No word on pricing, but this article will be updated once I have that information. I would guess that each one will cost around $130USD, which isn’t too bad for a mid-tower case at the beginning of 2019. Also, this limited run of cases are supposed to individually nubered, but there is no word as to where the numbers will live.

For those not familiar with the LANCOOL ONE from Lian LI, the case is the company’s current major mainstream offering. It hits many of the notes that a computer consumer would expect from a case in this day an age, from the front and top radiator support, to a tempered glass side panel, and thankfully, a USB 3.1 port on the top., without the price tag of boutique chassis manufacturing.

The front panel is aluminium alloy and not a textured plastic panel. This IS Lian Li after all. If there’s one thing this company doesn’t do, it’s not put forth the maximum amount of effort when it comes to the incorporation of aluminum in a chassis. The rest of the case will be white, so keep that in mind when choosing your color theme for your build.

Personally, I think the color will be a striking choice for some. It’s not a hue that is seen very often straight from a manufacturer, but also not gaudy or too intense. Color- matching components to the front of this case will be incredibly hard, to say the least, but the results will be worth it.
